Turbocharging
In the four-stroke naturally aspirated engine, the air for combustion is drawn in from atmosphere the suction stroke. In the turbocharged engine, the air is supplied pre-compressed and, in some cases, cooled. A greater weight of air for combustion is thus available in the cylinder and due to the valve overlap the cylinder is scavenged of the exhaust gases. The effect of turbocharging is:
1) to increase the weight of air available for combustion,
2) to scavenge the residual gases,
3) to cool all parts in the combustion chamber.
With the greater air weight, a greater quantity of fuel can be burned and an increase of power obtained without increasing the temperature and the heat stresses in the engine.
The turbocharger comprises a single stage axial flow exhaust gas driven turbine, driving a centrifugal air compressor which draws air from the atmosphere and delivers it under pressure to the air inlet manifold, then through the air inlet valves to the cylinders the gas turbine wheel and air impeller are mounted on a common rotor shaft carried in bearings mounted at each end of the shaft.
The impulse energy of the gases from the various cylinders is used to drive the turbocharger and there is no loss of engine power. To ensure efficient scavenging it is necessary to have a large overlap of the air and exhaust valves. With this overlap on multi-cylinder engines it is essential to avoid interference in the exhaust pipes between the exhaust impulses from successive cylinders, as this would interfere with efficient scavenging. To eliminate this, two, three or four exhaust pipes are used depending on the number of cylinders.

2. Diesel Engine
Diesels are the most economical heat engines. The Diesel engine is an "internal combustion" engine; that is to say, the fuel is burnt inside the engine cylinders and not externally in a separate boiler. The principle of operation is as follows,- a charge of pure air is drawn, or pumped, into the engine cylinder and then compressed by the moving piston to a pressure of about 500 lbs per square inch. When air is compressed, it's temperature rises. Fuel is now sprayed into the engine cylinder, is ignited by the hot air and in burning supplies more heat to the air charge thus causing it to expand and drive the engine piston.
There are two main types of diesels: two-stroke and four- stroke engines.
In two-stroke diesels compression occurs during the first stroke, combustion and expansion occur during the second stroke; exhaust, scavenging and recharging with air occur at the end of the second stroke and at the beginning of the first stroke.
The working cycle of a four-stroke diesel requires four separate strokes of the engine piston to complete the operation. These four strokes are called suction, compression, combustion-expansion and exhaust, but only the third stroke provides the power to drive the ship while the other three require power from the remaining cylinders to perform their various duties. So, what happens during these four cycles?
First stroke: suction
Inlet valve is open, exhaust valve is closed. Air is drawn into the cylinder.
Second stroke: compression
Both valves are closed. Piston compresses the air to high temperature.
Third stroke: combustion- expansion
Fuel injected burns. Temperature and pressure of combustion gases increase. Gas pressure forces the piston down (valves are closed). As the volume available for the gases increases, their pressure and temperature decrease. Piston displacement is used to produce power.
Fourth stroke: exhaust
Exhaust valve is open; inlet valve is closed. Burnt gases are forced out of the engine.
The Diesel Engine is made up of stationary and moving parts.
Stationary parts
These are principally: bedplate, cylinders, cylinder covers and cylinder liners.
Moving parts. These include: piston, connecting-rod, crankshaft, flywheel and valves.

The turbine is a heat engine consisting of a rotor carrying moving blades, a casing in which the rotor revolves, and stationary nozzles through which the steam is expanded or directed. Glands, bearings, throttle valve, governor and other devices are necessary for operation of the unit.
There are two kinds of turbines: steam turbines and gas turbines.
The steam turbine consists of two principal elements: 1) nozzles, a device for converting some of the thermal energy of the steam into kinetic energy, and 2) moving blades, an arrangement for converting the kinetic energy of the steam into shaftwork.
Steam turbines may be classified as impulse turbines and reaction turbines.
In the impulse turbine the steam expands only through stationary nozzles, dropping in pressure and increasing in velocity. The steam then impinges against the moving blades causing rotation and mechanical work.
In the reaction turbine the stationary nozzles have the same appearance as the moving blades. The steam drops in pressure and at the same time expands while passing through both the stationary nozzles and the moving blades.
Turbines are classed also as: 1) high, 2) intermediate and 3) low pressure.
